Feeling ran high during a 23 hour debate on a proposition that the Manchester University Students' union should affiliate to the Anti-Apartheid Movement. The right wing had organised all the support it could, but after two recounts, it was declared that the proposition had been carried ‘y 128 votes to 127.
